The Northern Border Crisis

JUICE—What is that old stand-by for Democrats, "Never let a crisis go to waste?"

Apparently, House Democrats convened on Wednesday in Washington to discuss the ongoing border crisis along the U.S. border with Canada.

According to one Democrat, House members were to address the recent media reports of U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents whipping moose while on horseback.

The Biden Administration has announced that some 10,000 illegal immigrant moose have been relocated around the U.S. and not deported back to their native Canada. (Sarcasm) READ MORE

“In just a little over 20 days, I was able to raise over $205,000 showing the momentum to win this race is on our side. My commitment to Pinellas County is to wake up every day and out-work, out-pace, and out-perform my opponents,” said Henson. “The energy and enthusiasm we are seeing in this race is unmatched, and donors are eager to see a true conservative representing them in Congress. Growing up in Pinellas County, I understand the values and concerns of the people in this district. I am honored to have gained their trust and look forward to representing the people of Pinellas in Washington.”
